Chapter 25: Awakening

Li Yan was now fully aware of what had happened to him, and he also remembered that when he woke up again, the old man told him not to open his eyes. Now he certainly understood the intention. If he had opened his eyes after waking up, he would have instinctively sat cross-legged and continued to refine the medicine. The fire poison medicine that had just been suppressed in his body would have erupted again. How could he have the luck to meet someone like the gray-shirted old man with immortal magic power immediately? Then, there would be only death waiting for him. Thinking of this, he was still terrified.

The old man's voice came again, but it seemed a little erratic. "Okay, after all this, you must have known why I saved you?"

Li Yan raised his head and looked at the illusory old man, nodded and said softly, "Of course I understand, I should be the person with spiritual roots in the 'Guishui Xianmen' you are looking for." Li Yan had guessed it since the gray-shirted old man told him about their five ancient sects looking for people with special physical spiritual roots. This was not difficult for him to guess. The old man saved him and told him about his origins and purpose. How could he not guess it?

"Yes, you are the one I have been searching for for hundreds of years. This old man's divine consciousness is about to dissipate. I have placed our immortal method 'Guishui Zhenjing' into your sea of ​​consciousness. You can sense its existence later. It is a complete set of immortal methods, from the Condensation Stage to the Mahayana Stage, but you can only see the immortal methods that match your own magic realm. As your cultivation realm continues to improve, you can open the immortal method formulas of the corresponding realm. Of course, you can only see the immortal methods of the Condensation Stage now. If you unfortunately die, then this set of immortal methods will immediately dissipate." At this point, the old man couldn't help but sigh.

"Boy, if I had found you at a normal time, even with my current magical power, although I cannot use my great magical powers, I should be able to accompany you for thousands of years. During this period, I can carefully guide your cultivation and help you avoid detours. Unfortunately, after combing your meridians and suppressing your fire poison, I can only do this now. You can only walk the rest of the way on your own. As for how far you can go, it depends on your luck."

Li Yan saw the old man saying this and couldn't help but stammer, "Master Immortal, I don't want to cultivate immortality. I want to go home and reunite with my parents."

The gray-shirted old man was stunned when he heard this. In his mind, cultivating immortality is something that everyone yearns for. Not to mention that a legendary powerful figure like him accepted disciples, even if a garbage cultivator in the Condensation Stage said he wanted to accept disciples in the secular world, there would be countless people breaking their heads to beg. This was beyond his expectation, but he didn't care too much. He sneered and said, "Hmph, do you think you still have a choice? If you don't cultivate immortality, then the fire poison in your body will probably grow and grow in a few years. Once the suppression is broken, you will die. Moreover, after the previous cultivation, plus today I combed your meridians and guided the effect of the medicine for you, you have already reached the first level of the Qi Condensation Stage. Do you think your current teacher will let you leave when he sees you wake up? Sooner or later, he will absorb your spiritual power, and that will also be death; if you practice the immortal method I gave you, maybe you still have a chance to fight. You said you don't cultivate immortality?"

After hearing this, Li Yan was stunned for a while, thinking in his heart, he really wanted to return to his parents just now, and really ignored his current environment. As the old man said, he is now in a difficult situation. If he doesn't cultivate, he will die. If he continues to cultivate, there is still a chance of survival.

Seeing Li Yan remained silent, the old man smiled coldly and said, "You should put aside the boy's thoughts and think more about how to survive. With the poison in your body, if you practice the 'Guishui Zhenjing' to the peak of the first stage of the Condensation Qi

stage, you should be able to force it out. You should understand this after reading the content of the practice. Well, you can practice more by this pond. This will strengthen our spiritual roots that are mainly water-based. Master Ji did not choose this valley as the residence randomly. This is the only place with some spiritual energy nearby. These spiritual energies come from the depths of this pond. There should be a small spiritual eye or something like that under this pond. After the spiritual energy spreads, it can be kept in this valley, otherwise you will not be able to practice. However, this amount of spiritual energy is too little, and the spiritual eye is too Otherwise, this Qingshanai City would have ceased to exist long ago, and might have been occupied by a sect of immortal cultivators.

Another thing, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse now. The spiritual power in your body is poisonous. Although I have sorted it out, I can only help you repair your meridians and keep you alive due to my current condition. This has exhausted my remaining little mana, but it can no longer change the poisonous nature of your spiritual power. As the spiritual power circulates throughout the body, the toxins hidden in the spiritual power will continue to grow and will continue to penetrate into the muscles and bones. However, when you change to practice the "Sunflower Water Sutra", if you practice to the peak of the first level of the Condensation Stage, the poison in these spiritual powers can be refined, so what you should care about now is how to practice the "Sunflower Water Sutra" well and how to escape, right? Only after escaping, you are qualified to plan other things. "

At this point, the gray-shirted old man's voice, which had already been ethereal and illusory, revealed a solemn meaning. He was also very worried. It would be extremely aggrieved if the inheritor who had been found after more than two million years died in the hands of a small Qi Condensation stage trash cultivator. For a small person like this, he could have turned him into ashes with just a thought before, but now he couldn't do it at all, which really made him extremely aggrieved. Now he didn't know where his real body was, and this divine thought was about to collapse. If he hadn't helped Li Yan repair his body, with his previous divine thought power, if he woke up normally, he could still kill a Qi Condensation third-level cultivator, and then he could hold on for several years. However, when he just woke up, Li Yan's life and death were just a matter of a few breaths, so he didn't have time to kill the military advisor Ji first. When he asked for Li Yan's life, his own mana would have been almost exhausted.

Li Yan also frowned. It was indeed as the old man said. At present, how could he live and escape from his teacher's hands was the main problem.

The old man's voice floated into Li Yan's ears again, "You should have about a year left. No matter whether you have cultivated to the peak of the first level of Qi Condensation, the military advisor Ji will take action. The poison in his body can only be suppressed for about a year at most. But if you can diligently cultivate the 'Guishui Sutra' to the peak of the first level of Qi Condensation within this year, then there may be a chance to reverse the situation, and there may be an accident. Hehe."

The old man's ethereal voice actually revealed a malicious laugh, but he stopped talking, and then changed the subject and said, "Well, if you want to escape from here, you may be able to get through this Marshal Hong in the city. He is very eager to get the so-called 'martial arts' of the military advisor Ji, and I also sense that in addition to Hong Linying, there is another martial arts master in the Marshal's Mansion who is not inferior to him. Although these two people together cannot be the opponent of the military advisor Ji, they can entangle him for a while.

In addition, you don't have to worry for the time being The safety of your parents and family,

If you can escape, they can only be your shackles, and Master Ji will not lose the possibility of using them as bait.

Oh, let me remind you, Master Ji has already mastered some entry-level immortal arts, such as wood thorns, fire bombs, and wind blades. You should deal with them carefully. Although these entry-level immortal arts are not worth mentioning, immortal arts are immortal arts, and they are not something that mortals and rookies like you can resist. "The old man said so, and when he mentioned the word "martial arts", he emphasized a little, but his voice was extremely illusory.

Li Yan was still a little confused when he heard the first half of his words. He didn't know why the gray-shirted old man laughed with some ill intentions, but it was obviously not directed at him. Then, before he had time to think about it, he heard the old man talking about Marshal Hong's intentions, and his eyes lit up. He remembered what happened at the military training ground that day. At that time, he didn't know what Marshal Hong's intentions were. The other party had used his internal force to travel around in his body. It turned out that he was thinking about the skills of Master Ji. This might be an opportunity that could be used, but how to deal with Master Ji's immortal skills, he had no idea for a while, that was immortal skills.

"Okay, kid, it's impossible to talk to you more. I look forward to meeting you in the future. However, you should at least call me 'Master'. Remember, I call you 'Venerable Fushui' Dong Fuyi" At this point, the old man's voice gradually became inaudible, and then his figure began to turn into a little water mist and dispersed faintly.

Li Yan looked at the mist in the air and said anxiously, "Old man, old man, you haven't told me how to get out?" But there was no sound in the mist anymore. He thought, "What master? He didn't explain clearly, and I have inexplicably joined a fairy sect, a rootless fairy sect. I am probably the only one in the sect now, so where is the fairy method? How can I get out of this spiritual space?" While thinking, the mist in front of him had dissipated. As the mist dissipated, Li Yan suddenly felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then he was in a trance, and it was already pitch black.

Li Yan felt a little cold all over, and suddenly opened his eyes. He felt a bright sunlight in front of him, which made him close his eyes again. At this time, a familiar voice came over, "Disciple, you finally woke up. How are you? Do you feel better?"

Li Yan's body stiffened when he heard this voice. After a pause, he slowly opened his eyes again. The first thing he saw was a man in a black robe, who was leaning over to block the sunlight. A clear and kind face was looking at him with concern. It was his master, Master Ji Jun. Li Yan couldn't help but force a smile. He looked around again and realized that he was lying on the ground, soaked all over. He propped himself up with his hands and sat up. He found that he was still beside the pool. The sun in the sky was still slightly tilted to the east, as if it was still morning. After a little hesitation, he asked, "Master, what's wrong with me?"

Master Ji was relieved to see Li Yan wake up. He stood up and said to Li Yan gently, "You drew Qi into your body during cultivation and your meridians were diverted, so you fell into the pool. I just rescued you. It has been about half a quarter of an hour, but you have been in a coma. So I can only use Qi to heal you. Now you are fine. Master, eh?" He was still thinking and talking at the beginning. Later, he habitually swept his consciousness over Li Yan and was surprised. As Li Yan woke up, the aura on Li Yan's body was constantly changing and strengthening, and the face that was originally a little distorted and floating was also slightly distorted.

The swollen face began to recover slowly. He just took a quick glance out of habit and found that Li Yan was already at the initial stage of the first stage of the Qi Condensation Stage. He couldn't help but look dazed and shook his head gently. Just now, when he pulled Li Yan out of the water, Li Yan had a slight reaction when he first sent out his spiritual power to treat him. Then he injected a few more strands of spiritual power but there was no reaction. However, when he touched Li Yan's nose, he was breathing normally. When he scanned his body with his spiritual sense, Li Yan's body seemed to be seriously injured. His realm was still at the stage of drawing qi into the body, and he had not successfully reached the first stage of Qi Condensation.

This inevitably disappointed him greatly, but as long as he was alive, there was still hope for another attack, so he circulated spiritual power into his body again, hoping to relieve the fire poison in his body, but Li Yan just remained motionless and did not seem to wake up. He had to stand by and think and observe. After about a cup of tea, Li Yan woke up by himself. How did he become the first stage of the Qi Condensation Stage with this habitual spiritual sense scan just now? Was he in a trance? He released his spiritual sense to scan Li Yan again. He didn't think anyone here could know what spiritual sense was. After a moment, even with his fortitude, he couldn't help but show great joy on his face. It was indeed the first level of Qi Condensation. He also saw that Li Yan's eyes were more black and white, several times clearer than before. But then he became suspicious again. He had scanned Li Yan several times just now and confirmed that Li Yan had not reached the first level of Qi Condensation. How could he explain this now?

But after a moment, he put aside his doubts. Li Yan had been practicing under his nose for forty-nine days. How could there be any problems? Or maybe the spiritual power he injected into his body worked, or maybe this kid had a special physique, but he was just suspicious. As for why he didn't notice his advancement just now, it might be that Li Yan's breath was unstable when he was unconscious just now, and he had just rushed into the first level of Qi Condensation, so his breath was too weak. Now as Li Yan woke up, his breath naturally slowly appeared.

Li Yan looked at his teacher and exclaimed in surprise when he was halfway through his words. Then he suddenly felt an invisible force covering him, as if someone was spying on his entire body, leaving him without any secrets. "Spiritual consciousness!" A thought flashed through his mind and the word popped up involuntarily. After he confirmed this idea, he felt more clearly as if a pair of eyes saw through him from top to bottom and inside out. Although this feeling was so illusory, it was indeed real and he could not explain it. It made him very uncomfortable. At the same time, he also found that his five senses had become extremely sensitive. He didn't need to look back, and he could even hear the sound of the fish swimming in the pool and the low chirping of various autumn insects in the valley. Then he glanced to the side with the corner of his eye, and he was surprised to find that the dew on the grass dozens of feet away from him was as clear as if it was right in front of him, and the light spots were so dazzling. The ants crawling between the grass leaves and dew were diligently carrying things in the sun. He could even see the antennae on the heads of these ants swaying constantly. Turning his head to look at the pool, a thread of air suddenly appeared in his eyes. They intertwined, twisted, and spread. He guessed that this should be the spiritual energy that Dong Fuyi said spread out from the pool. Li Yan just felt that these scenes were so incredible.

And from what his teacher said, he was only unconscious for about half a quarter of an hour, but he talked to Dong Fuyi for a long time in that space. If he didn't estimate the time wrong, it should be at least an hour. How to explain this?
